Lexical Polysemy and Slovensko leksikalno pomenoslovje

Abstract

Lexical polysemy, which iz realized as a specific fact of an individual language, can presumably be presented with the typology of the inner lexical inter-semantic connections that exist in a given language. A Vidovič Muha's Slovensko leksikalno pomenoslovje (A Slovene lexical semantics) with its first theoretically conceived presentation of the lexical polysemy in Slovene, provides the criteria of typologization of the lexical polysemy, based on the types of changes, in the structure of semantic components. A test of the established typologizing criteria on a larger corpus of material showed their effectiveness in elimination differentiation of the identified types of lexical polysemy in Slovene nouns and indicated the possibility of new typological criteria.
